Junior Jen Burney- a First Teamer-takes a 0.74 goals-against average (GAA) and a .774 save percentage into the 1997 season, while sophomore Anne Browning-who was Honorable Mention All-Ivy-returns after posting a 0.54 GAA and an .810 save percentage.

He was married four times, served in the Air Force, and crusaded...
